The US dollar is at the lows of the day at 102.09 against the yen after weak current account data. The pair is down 10 pips since the report as Treasury yields decline. Earlier today the pair hit a one-week high of 102.31.
What’s interesting is that the current account report was restructured to include definitional changes and new methods to revise numbers back to 1999. That leaves economists scratching their heads rather than drawing conclusions.
